Hi,

I have tried giving 777 to /etc/profile. But no luck.
/etc/nologin doesnot exists.
pwck returns nothing
I use telnet for login.
/dev/tty's and pts have permision crw-rw-rw

Here in mail I have hacked password and user field in /etc/passwd.

Finally I have deleted users and recreated it with other names , and now I
can telnet using newly created users.

Only thing I leftout is still I can not do direct login on console/telnet
using root . I must have to login using other user name and than su .

thanks to all
pankaj

/etc/passwd is in good health.

root:aaaVrhDa:0:3::/:/sbin/sh
B:KBN:101:0:admin user,,,:/home/admin:/usr/bin/sh
A:xGU:102:103:,,,:/home/oracle:/usr/bin/sh
C:oj3JY:103:20:A A,,,:/home/C:/usr/bin/sh
D:hqc:104:20:C,,,:/home/C:/usr/bin/sh

             Direct login for B,C, D says login incorrect. But when say
"su -B"
from A's session, can login fine.
             Which logs can be useful to me to troubleshoot ??

             thanks stuart
